DiRT Rally Hits Steam Early Access

That's a point, I've got this installed on my SSD which is either my F or G drive, depending on which one I choose, Got plenty of space, but I wonder if its trying to find the exe file on the C drive....Hmm :/ My problem is I cant test that theory since my C drive is a 60gb SSD O/S drive with 5 GB left on it.

Hmm 5Gb should be enough from what I've read it creates a few gb temp file in your appdata to save the replay data. Random tip if you have already done it on your SSD, if you don't use hibernate you could delete the hiberfil.sys file to free up a bit of space! (open cmd and use the command powercfg -h off)

If it has installed on F/G via Steam then that should be fine if you have used a symbolic link then something could be messed up.
 
Question, I've got enough games as it is, but I've been craving a rally game since Dirt, and even that wasn't proper.

My question is this, is it going to end up being like Asseto Corsa, never being 'finished' or do they actually have a deadline? Is there a 'release date'? Do they have a plan or how much content ect?

I don't particularly want to buy into a half finished game. Been stung too many times.

They have put out their plan until November (see here: https://www.dirtgame.com/uk/timeline) which is where the game may be classed as released but as with most early access games it depends on popularity and community requests. The game itself in its current state is very polished and has a good amount of content so in comparison it would seem like a great £10-15 standalone game. The extra £7-10 to join Early Access lets you play it now, gives you a load of future content plus even more possibilities for the game changing/improving from community feedback is a great deal!

Compared to Asseto Corsa/pCARS this feels a lot more polished than they did in early access but it also has a lot less content. So at the moment it feels like a full production title just lack on content and features.
 
hmmm anybody running this with crossfire? Im getting a constant locked 60fps on the outside car view but soon as I go inside it bogs down to about 40fps. This is on a crossfire 290 overclocked.
Crossfire is working which I can see in the benchmark but something is destroying the fps when I use the inside car views.
 
account linking seems fixed, or maybe it's just me
Thank you for submitting your recent request to Codemasters Customer Services concerning RaceNet.

This issue should now be resolved, can you try linking your Steam account again.

Kind regards

Getting bored of monte carlo and greece.

wales is so much fun though!

I actually managed to get a faster sector time in wales earlier with the Stratos :O

Keep being at least 10 seconds slower than the ai over all though but wales <3

What res you playing at?

at 1080 all settings maxed and using 4f8x EQAA I'm still getting like 75-90 FPS with a single 280x.

night be just worth turning off crossfire for this game unless your at some crazy high resolution with multiple monitors

hate games that do that.
don't think it's good for my SSD long term I've only got 55gb free lol.

Im going to end up with loads of wasted write cycles.

we go to the trouble of disabling page files and moving them to a hdd but then games do this without an option to change the dir

my ssd is already a few years old it'll probably start shrinking soon
